Leaving a gift in your Will is a simple yet extraordinary act of generosity and a lasting way to make a significant difference to people living with Head and Neck Cancer beyond your lifetime.  

Every gift, no matter the size, will ensure people affected by Head and Neck Cancer continue to receive free information, education and support services, and a voice through advocacy and awareness raising.   

Meredith's Story:

"I’ve provided for a ‘Gift In My Will’ to Head and Neck Cancer Australia so they can continue to provide important resources for Head and Neck Cancer patients, caregivers, family and health professionals.

If someone was thinking about donating to HANCA, I’d let them know they would be helping to provide education, awareness and support for people with Head and Neck Cancer as well as for their carers. For me, supporting HANCA is also a way of showing my thanks to my head and neck cancer team. I’m always happy to help Head and Neck Cancer Australia."

How to Leave a Gift in your Will 

You can leave a gift in your Will when writing a new Will, or by adding a codicil (an addition) to your existing Will. It's a good idea to consult with your solicitor or the Public Trustees in your State to ensure your wishes are clearly reflected in your Will. 

If you wish to include Head and Neck Cancer Australia in your Will, an example of the correct wording to use is provided here.

Head and Neck Cancer Australia has partnered with Gathered Here, a free online Will-writing service who offer our supporters legally binding Wills and updates for life.

It is easy, quick and something you can do online free of charge from home. You may still wish to consult your solicitor, particularly if you have a complex Will. Click here to get started.  

Gathered Here is a separate entity from Head and Neck Cancer Australia, so be sure to read their policies.
